>From time to time I need to unmount a partition on an active system. I use lsof to show open files on the partition so that I know which daemons to shutdown so that I can temporarily unmount the partition. For example, # lsof +D /var displays all processes with open file handles on /var and subdirectories of /var. You may need to "apt-get install lsof" if it is not already installed on your system. -- Shaun Crossley mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.whatever.ca -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
